Italiano’s choices: both Beltran and Nzola are on the bench, Kouamé will in fact be in the first striker role. Bonaventura is missing in midfield and therefore room for Barak alongside Lopez and Duncan. In defense, debut from the 1st minute for Mina. 8.40pm
Vrancken’s choices: usual 4-4-2 for the Belgian team with the attacking pair consisting of Arokodare and Fadera. Full space in midfield for both Heynen and Paintsil. 8.41pm

End of the first half: FIORENTINA-GENK 1-1, Kayembe and Martinez Quarta score. 9.52pm
The first half was anything but boring at the Franchi: an opening post hit by Genk with Fadera, Martinez Quarta’s goal valid for the equalizer at the end, in the middle the goal of the momentary advantage for the guests with Kayembe. A first half with a Fiorentina not very inspired, but still dangerous in at least a couple of circumstances. However, Genk defends well, with order and starts again with danger. The match is very open and fun. 9.54pm
Fiorentina certainly needs more concreteness. Kouamè didn’t particularly shine in the first half, which is why the focus is mainly on Beltran and Nzola, ready to take over in the second half.9.55pm
